I may be splitting hairs but... I think it is hard to say at the
moment. I think it depends on how you define "equal" for a shared
object.

The 4.3.0 in libcurl.4.3.0.so is a versioning scheme used on Linux.
Regular people use the other scheme that you are asking about. It is
one of those disconnects created by engineers who lack ux experience
(or disregard it). Also see docs like
https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Updating-version-info.html
.

That both cURL 7.29.0 and cURL 7.43.0 each use Glibc version 4.3.0
tells you they are binary compatible. Obviously they won't be equal
because 7.43 has bug fixes not present in 7.29.
